Posted - 01/02/2010 : 3:43:21 PM Last year, mine were mostly socks, so they were easy to count up. This year was wild and varied. I couldn't have kept track of them all without having taken a photo of each one. They are:

(Hmmm, almost sounds like a knitter's version of the 12 Days of Christmas! )

Anyway, 71 projects completed, 70 not counting the yarndalier. Yikes, did I really knit THAT much in one year?! At the moment, my first cardigan is in process, and I really DO need to finish the pair of "Passacaglia" socks that was to be my DH's >2008< Christmas gift. Plus, a purse is in process for a friend who hasn't had time to celebrate Christmas yet. We'll catch up with her at Epiphany.

Beyond that, well, I have a couple sweaters designed in my head but not even swatched yet. My USOs (UnStarted Objects) are all hanging on a closet pole off the yarn room. I put the yarn in bags with handles, loop the handles around the pole, stick one handle inside the other, and put a wine cork in the supporting handle to hold the bag on the pole, out of the way of my cats.

What's YOUR tally?

How about you?

Posted - 01/03/2010 : 6:57:57 PM My very short list:

1 - Girasole afghan4 - pairs of socks2 - hats1 - scarf

I feel like there must be more but either my memory is very short term or maybe my reading through knitting books just made me feel like I was knitting.

Non-knitting accomplishments (took time away from the knitting):

8,000 miles on my bicycleContinued going through bins in the basement (one year after moving), only a few more to go...

Posted - 01/03/2010 : 6:55:39 PM I knit more this year than in the previous two combined... yet have very little to show for it!

Posted - 01/03/2010 : 3:51:04 PM I'm very impressed with eveyrbody's efforts and productivity with their favorite crafts. I have made a total of 46 items but the bulk of them were small items. Here is my list:

Hats= 11 (my goal was 15 to 20) but I'm happy with this.Scarf=3 ( I did not have any set goals for this project).Shawl=2Coaster=30

What is most important is that I enjoyed making the items and I'm happy and thankful that I'm blessed to do this much.

not nearly enough :)1 mini sampler shawl in cotton now in use as a bread basket liner

Stella I don't spend nearly enough time knitting. I don't have nearly enough yarn stashed for the future. My knit to frog ratio is around 2:1 and on show here www.Knitknitfrog.blogspot.comwhere I even video my knitting!

Posted - 01/03/2010 : 12:16:08 AM Ceil, I make the slippers to sell. They are my favorite addiction. I can do them in my sleep!

1 sewn Halloween costume, per pattern and including zipper (which I haven't done since Jr High)2 daffodil blossoms, odd color, meant for a white elephant gift exchange2 studies in crochet, based on a Sierpinski triangle1.5 snowflakes.

ETA oh, yea, and the two sea bands. They're ugly (I used fancy pattern yarn conceptualized for a much longer repeat and some other gauge), but it was interesting making a pocket integral while knitting via a combination of short-row and double-knit. They probably won't be used, but it's served its purpose of getting DD over her extreme car-sickness problem. (She was getting sick driving to church).
